 I am using the nPM1300 PMIC and the LED drivers configured so that: 
 
 
 Green LED = charging status (PMIC-driven) 
 
 
 Red LED = error indication 
 
 
 Normally, when charging, the green LED is solid ON, and when there is an error the red LED</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Tue, 17 Mar 2026 11:59:04 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/127429/npm1300-charge-indication-led" /><item><title>RE: npm1300 charge indication LED</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/563435?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 17 Mar 2026 11:59:04 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:0dda08c0-58a9-45f6-ae4f-d638af620613</guid><dc:creator>Szabolcs</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Jerome!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It sounds like the device is trying to start charging periodically, but always fails to do so.&amp;nbsp;I have a few questions/pointers to help you debug the problem:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Does the blinking stop after a while, or goes on indefinitely?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What hardware are you using, is it a DK/EK or a custom board?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Can you share some logging info (e.g.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;Record Events option of nPM PowerUP)?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What kind of battery are you using, how is its condition?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is the state/%/voltage of the battery?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Did you try multiple batteries?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is the frequency of the blinking of the LED?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Is the VBUS voltage stable?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Can you show VBUS, VBAT, and the LED voltage on an oscilloscope plot? (All the same time.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is the battery charging current?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
